Vegan Too Good to Go

One of the very few places I’ve seen that sell an all vegan TooGoodToGo(if you don’t know this app, I suggest you get to know it😉) for 3.33 I got a huge slab of vegan chocolate orange brownie, Suma vegan meatball chilli, roti, peppers, chilli peppers, tomatoes, carrots, mint, spinach, parsley, celery and I’m pretty sure I’m missing some stuff out! The best surprise bag and super friendly staff that hot spotted me because my internet wasn’t working🫶🏼

Pros: Vegan options, Friendly staff

Best Independent Shop

Always love coming here, before veganism really started to become mainstream they had everything you could want and more and they’re going just as strong! Highly recommend a visit when wondering along Bold Street!

Pros: Great food options

Great shop to go to to feel like you're actually buying your food from human beings and helping out the local community. Always have so much variety in stock.

Great for vegan alternative-type food

There's some stuff they sell here I've never seen sold anywhere else locally, such as vegan black pudding. They sell nuts by the kilo and lots of cooking ingredients and seasoning. They sell fruit and veg you don't typically see in British shops such as plantains. They actually do a range of vegan wraps, burritos, and chimichangas you can put in your carryout.

Amazing

Been coming here for years even before I was vegan. Love going in here to pick up vegan bits such as fake meats, mayo, pies but then finding food from all over the world that I’ve never had before! Great prices and staff are lovely. Better than LIV down the road.

Pros: Loads of vegan substitute items, Amazing variety of international food, Lovely staff

Variety for vegans

I can't believe how many times I've walked past this place assuming it just had rice and noodles etc in. It's an aladins cave of interest. Loads vegan food. Ready meals,cheese sauces etc.
But also unusual veg and spices .there was spaghetti and pasta made from all sorts of unusual stuff like black beans. I bought seitan and fresh turmeric and some other bits as I was on the train. I'm going back in the car.

Pros: Variety, Cheaper than Liv

Wonderful health food / international store

Matta's is a treasure trove! So many essentials and treats under one roof. Love their fresh sourdough loaf. Staff are always super friendly, it's centrally located on Bold Street and the prices are not as high as other similar stores. Love this place.

Pros: Vast selection, Friendly staff, Great location

Great shop for harder to find ingredients

I love this shop for staples such as nut milks, various tofu items and vegan deli items. Although it isn't totally vegan like the Purple Carrot on Smithdown Road, it also has lots of great value bulk buy items such as nuts, spices, grains and rice. They also stock raw chocolate and vego bars - so no more :-)

Pros: Usual fruit and veg including plantains, turmeric , Large range of vegan treat foods

Cons: Not completely vegan but only small quantities of , I wish it was bigger!!!

Great shop!

This shop has a delightful selection of vegan items from cheese to desserts. We bought a wide range of chocolates (Booja Booja) and fudge and greatly impressed our non-vegan friends who live in Liverpool.

Pros: Wide selection of vegan items, Centrally located

Do not miss!

Matta's is such a wonderful shop. We always stock up on our spices, herbs, tofu, nuts, vegan chocolate, and beans (and much more!) each month. Very friendly and helpful staff and a wide range of products to suit both vegetarians and vegans.

Wide choice of vegan-friendly products

Popped in for a quick nosey and spent half an hour looking round. Lots of vegan-friendly products and all very well priced.

Left with a bag full and will return. A great place to source international ingredients that are tricky to get elsewhere.

Matta's, Liverpool

Matta's bills itself as an international food shop and not as a health food shop. Some of their things on offer will almost certainly interest a large number of vegetarians of all persuasions (including vegan veggies).

However some of the things that they are offer are quite obviously not vegetarian without having to read label the to see the ingredients (eg dead fish in the freezer compartment). I personally find this somewhat off putting and I have one friend who refuses to go there on account of this. Having said that though they do have some brilliant stuff in Matta's and some veg*n friendly things that I'm not aware in any of the health food shops in Liverpool. I find myself going there a bit more regularly. Its a real shame about some of the things that they sell so far that reason I am unable to rate it higher than this.

Not all vegan... but staff are willing to help

Plenty of vegan options amongst others and good value for money (especially the bulk bags of dried beans).

Many vegan products

Matta's was a life saver while in Liverpool as it stocks plenty of vegan products including spreads, milks, faux meats... Matta's is not at all, however, a 100% veg shop. Helpful and friendly staff.
